is there a functionality (or planned functionality) in bacula to allow two or more server instances work in a way similar to a cluster ?
that would probably include two separate instances of director, storage daemon and database that would be able to share/sync information about jobs and job data. file daemons would probably have two director access configured, with a way to set a "preferred" one, which would always contact particular client, except in cases when the preferred one is down. with an older version of bacula i have now, failed first server would require manual reconfiguring of all clients, and it also requires syncing data separately from bacula. in case of geographically distributed servers there also is no way to tell backup jobs to go to a particular server first, so there's increased network traffic as well. i've searched documentation and mailing list archives, but best i could find was about clustered services backup. -- Rich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
